Road to the World Cup: Bermuda ready to Host Qualifiers
IslandStats.com
Bermuda is less than 20 days away from a historic sporting milestone as the island prepares to host Round One of the 2026 CONCACAF Women's Under-17 Qualifiers.
The tournament, which serves as the opening chapter of the journey toward the next FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, will see the Flora Duffy South Field Stadium at the National Sports Center take center stage from January 24th to February 2nd. For Bermuda, the selection as a host nation is a significant fillip, providing a rare opportunity to compete for a World Cup berth in front of a home crowd.
CONCACAF confirmed that Bermuda will lead Group B in a round-robin format against four visiting nations. The schedule is set to be a grueling test of endurance and tactical discipline for Head Coach Gary Adams' side as they face off against:
Panama Saint Kitts and Nevis Suriname Bonaire
The group presents a fascinating mix of regional powerhouses and emerging programs. Panama, often a heavyweight in Central American football, is expected to be Bermuda's toughest hurdle, while the matchups against Caribbean rivals Saint Kitts and Nevis and Suriname will be vital for securing a top-two finish.
The tournament structure is unforgiving; only the group winners and the two best second-place finishers across all six groups will advance to the Final Round. There, they will join the region's pre-seeded "Big Four"—Canada, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and the United States—to battle for the final World Cup spots.
As the countdown reaches the final two weeks, local organizers are hoping for a bumper turnout. For a nation with a rich footballing heritage, the prospect of seeing the island's next generation of female stars take their first step toward a World Cup is an opportunity the Bermuda public will not want to miss.
